1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:07,000
I heard about this house.

2
00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:11,000
It hit everything we were looking for.

3
00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:16,000
It seemed like the deeper I got into the house, the sicker I got.

4
00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:20,000
245. Every night.

5
00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:23,000
It never skipped a night.

6
00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:25,000
Matt? Is that you?

7
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:29,000
I knew something was hunting me.

8
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:35,000
Oh God. Something's gonna happen.

9
00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:41,000
We've disturbed something that we should have never disturbed.

10
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:44,000
Get her!

11
00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:00,000
Coffee's ready.

12
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:14,000
Honey?

13
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:16,000
Came right out of the blue.

14
00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:18,000
She was a normal, healthy type lady.

15
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:20,000
Honey, what's wrong?

16
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:34,000
It affected my family.

17
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:36,000
Basically, it shook us to the roots.

18
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:40,000
Get in, kids.

19
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:44,000
Thank you.

20
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:52,000
Dad, what is it?

21
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:59,000
My mom means everything in the world to me, so it was hard.

22
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:01,000
Dad?

23
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:03,000
Listen to me, kids.

24
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:06,000
We thought, oh God, we're not gonna have a mom.

25
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:09,000
And it was kind of one of those, like, reality checks to me,

26
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:12,000
saying that, do I have to grow up without a mom?

27
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:36,000
When I had my stroke, it was very difficult.

28
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:44,000
My speech came back, but my thought process was not 100%.

29
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:47,000
But I knew that it was in me to be a fighter.

30
00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:52,000
And just looking at my kids on a daily basis.

31
00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:57,000
I want to see them grow up.

32
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:02,000
That was the first time I saw the house.

33
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:05,000
We originally were staying in a rental unit,

34
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:09,000
trying to find a bigger, better place to make permanent.

35
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:11,000
We needed a home.

36
00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:13,000
This was it.

37
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:15,000
It's a new start, baby.

38
00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:18,000
Today's the first day of our new life.

39
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:36,000
And it's even got a spooky basement.

40
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:42,000
I don't know what it was,

41
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:46,000
but basement had a really kind of a weird feel to it.

42
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:49,000
I think I've had enough for today.

43
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:05,000
When I finally got my room set up,

44
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:07,000
I started putting my stuff away.

45
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:12,000
I brought out these two bunnies that I was giving for Easter.

46
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:14,000
And they're really cute,

47
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:17,000
and they have this little rope connecting them by their paws.

48
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:24,000
The boy bunny, it was right in the middle of my room.

49
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:34,000
Why are they torn apart?

50
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:44,000
I go to the bathroom,

51
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:48,000
I go straight to my mom.

52
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:50,000
Mom!

53
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:52,000
Mom, my bunnies are broken.

54
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:54,000
She was really upset.

55
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:56,000
Well, honey, it's probably just from the move.

56
00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:57,000
I more or less told her,

57
00:04:57,000 --> 00:04:59,000
oh, you must have ripped it by accident.

58
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:04,000
She stomped up those stairs

59
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:06,000
and was very irritated with me

60
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:08,000
in the fact that I would not acknowledge

61
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:11,000
that somebody broke her kissing bunnies.

62
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:16,000
I'm sorry.

63
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:31,000
I just want you to get better.

64
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:35,000
Ever since my stroke,

65
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:37,000
the doctors had issued me a CPAP,

66
00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:40,000
and this is to help me regulate my breathing.

67
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:51,000
If I didn't wear my CPAP, doctors were very clear.

68
00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:53,000
Your heart can stop beating,

69
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:55,000
you can have another stroke.

70
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:00,000
You have to use it nightly,

71
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:02,000
or you're taking your own life in your own hands.

72
00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:17,000
I catch a whiff of something.

73
00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:19,000
It's not a normal smell

74
00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:21,000
that you would have in your house.

75
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:26,000
I mean, I know this.

76
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:28,000
This is a familiar smell.

77
00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:34,000
The door to the basement is open.

78
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:38,000
There should be no reason why this door should be open.

79
00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:40,000
And then that's when it registered.

80
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:42,000
It was a smell of cherry pipe tobacco.

81
00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:48,000
But nobody smokes in our home.

82
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:52,000
I don't like going to the basement,

83
00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:54,000
so I shut that door.

84
00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:56,000
I made sure to push it, and I heard the click.

85
00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:58,000
I don't want to go to the basement.

86
00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:00,000
I don't want to go to the basement.

87
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:02,000
I don't want to go to the basement.

88
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:04,000
I don't want to go to the basement.

89
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:06,000
I don't want to go to the basement.

90
00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:08,000
I don't want to push it, and I heard the click.

91
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:28,000
I'm going to go to bed. I'm tired.

92
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:30,000
I've got an early day.

93
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:32,000
I'm going to bed.

94
00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:37,000
That door is open again.

95
00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:47,000
I know I shut that door.

96
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:50,000
You try to rationalize it.

97
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:52,000
Did the house settle? No.

98
00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:53,000
Didn't feel anything.

99
00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:55,000
Did we have an earthquake? No, we didn't have an earthquake.

100
00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:56,000
That's crazy.

101
00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:59,000
I shut it.

102
00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:01,000
Click.

103
00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:03,000
It's shut.

104
00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:09,000
This door keeps coming open.

105
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:14,000
It's very odd to me.

106
00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:16,000
Very odd.

107
00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:32,000
Click.

108
00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:48,000
As I looked at my bedroom window and then Amber's bedroom window,

109
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:51,000
it almost looked like somebody had two fingers

110
00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:54,000
and pushing one of the blinds down and looking through.

111
00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:56,000
My heart just started racing.

112
00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:59,000
Nelson's not home.

113
00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:01,000
Who's in the house?

114
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:14,000
What is a disabled woman supposed to do if it really is an intruder?

115
00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:21,000
Maybe I should have called Nelson, but I just didn't want to be defeated.

116
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:37,000
When I got up to Amber's room, I got hit with a wall of cold.

117
00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:57,000
And there is nothing there.

118
00:09:57,000 --> 00:10:05,000
There's nowhere anybody could be.

119
00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:12,000
But yet I could still see the two-finger indentation in the blind.

120
00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:17,000
It just baffled me.

121
00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:20,000
But I'm a rational adult.

122
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:25,000
Okay, it must have been the light playing on the window or something.

123
00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:41,000
You know, there's nothing there.

124
00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:46,000
In the house, the way I slept was not right.

125
00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:50,000
I would usually sleep through the night.

126
00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:59,000
But in this house, I was waking up at a specific time.

127
00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:12,000
245. Every night, it never skipped a night.

128
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:15,000
Matt, is that you?

129
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:22,000
First thought, Matt's trying to play a trick on me.

130
00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:31,000
It's shaking. I don't know what to do.

131
00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:39,000
Oh, God.

132
00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:45,000
The shaking finally stopped out for a few minutes.

133
00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:52,000
But I'm still thinking, is it gonna happen again?

134
00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:56,000
Okay, it's done.

135
00:11:56,000 --> 00:12:04,000
I'm calming down.

136
00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:30,000
And then suddenly...

137
00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:41,000
I jolted up from my bed, grabbed my pillows, grabbed my cover.

138
00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:50,000
I went downstairs in my parents' room.

139
00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:16,000
Next thing I know, there's a little boy giggling.

140
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:24,000
My heart starts pounding really fast.

141
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:36,000
Oh, God, something's gonna happen.

142
00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:45,000
Get her!

143
00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:47,000
Something's wrong. You know, this is your child.

144
00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:48,000
What's wrong?

145
00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:49,000
There's somebody in the house.

146
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:51,000
She's so upset.

147
00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:53,000
He was right here.

148
00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:55,000
Who's in the house?

149
00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:57,000
I don't know. I heard somebody.

150
00:13:57,000 --> 00:13:58,000
She was so scared.

151
00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:01,000
Oh, good look. Okay. All right.

152
00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:02,000
It's okay, Annie.

153
00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:05,000
She was shaking like a little leaf.

154
00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:08,000
Daddy's looking after it.

155
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:11,000
Nelson's looking around and turning on lights

156
00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:18,000
and trying to figure out, is there somebody there?

157
00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:22,000
What's going on?

158
00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:24,000
There's no one in the house, sweetie.

159
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:27,000
No, no. I heard something. I swear, I heard something.

160
00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:28,000
Maybe it was a dream.

161
00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:29,000
No, no, no.

162
00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:33,000
She's telling me that something whispered in her ear,

163
00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:34,000
get out.

164
00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:36,000
Calm down, okay? It's gonna be all right.

165
00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:37,000
I just looked at him.

166
00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:39,000
There was something in this house,

167
00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:48,000
and it was trying to get rid of us.

168
00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:56,000
A few nights later, I was gonna go take a bath.

169
00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:58,000
Nelson's like, just call me when you need me.

170
00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:08,000
And he closed the door, and it was just my own little paradise.

171
00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:10,000
The heat, the jasmine smell,

172
00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:18,000
it was just an extremely relaxing situation.

173
00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:34,000
Closed my eyes, and just let go of the day.

174
00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:49,000
When I opened my eyes, it was a whole different scenario.

175
00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:54,000
There was mud in the water.

176
00:15:54,000 --> 00:16:07,000
It was dirty, disgusting, chunky, and it was all around me.

177
00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:12,000
Nothing could stop it.

178
00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:13,000
I screamed for Nelson.

179
00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:16,000
Showcasing the brand new design, direction, and technology,

180
00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:20,000
this model was poised to rise above all the competition in this category.

181
00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:21,000
He wasn't answering.

182
00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:31,000
The door's locked.

183
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:32,000
Christy!

184
00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:33,000
Christy!

185
00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:34,000
It was terrifying.

186
00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:39,000
It was kind of weird.

187
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:46,000
Could it be something with the plumbing system?

188
00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:47,000
Come on, I got you.

189
00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:57,000
I'm trying to rationalize how something could get into a closed system.

190
00:16:57,000 --> 00:17:07,000
A week before my birthday, my mom buys me the stance game.

191
00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:16,000
They chose you the moves, you hit the moves, and you move on.

192
00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:27,000
So I'm having fun, I'm dancing, and one of the moves is to turn around.

193
00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:39,000
And right there was a little boy.

194
00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:40,000
Hello?

195
00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:43,000
He had dark hair.

196
00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:46,000
He just looked Native American.

197
00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:49,000
Are you okay?

198
00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:50,000
Mom!

199
00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:51,000
Mom!

200
00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:52,000
It was horrible.

201
00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:53,000
Mom!

202
00:17:53,000 --> 00:18:00,000
Fear just ran right through me.

203
00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:01,000
Amber?

204
00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:08,000
Mom, there's a little boy over there.

205
00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:10,000
What do you mean?

206
00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:12,000
Why are you freaking out?

207
00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:15,000
I just saw this thing for the first time with my own eyes.

208
00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:19,000
A little boy, a little Native American boy.

209
00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:21,000
There's something in this house.

210
00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:23,000
Something like what?

211
00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:24,000
A ghost, mom.

212
00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:26,000
The house is haunted.

213
00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:28,000
Amber, come on.

214
00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:33,000
Why won't any of you believe me?

215
00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:35,000
I kind of threw a fit.

216
00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:50,000
My mom does not believe me.

217
00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:55,000
As soon as your head hit the pillow, you would hear sounds.

218
00:18:55,000 --> 00:19:04,000
It sounded like an audible conversation, but you can't make it out what they're saying.

219
00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:06,000
What's going on?

220
00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:07,000
Hi.

221
00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:08,000
Hi.

222
00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:12,000
He tells me, did you hear that?

223
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:15,000
What do you hear?

224
00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:18,000
I can't quite make it out.

225
00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:20,000
I figured there has to be a logical explanation.

226
00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:23,000
There must be a radio on in the house.

227
00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:33,000
So I ran around the house trying to figure this out.

228
00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:41,000
The house is quiet.

229
00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:45,000
I hear something.

230
00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:55,000
And then something made me realize I had to go down basement.

231
00:19:55,000 --> 00:20:08,000
I didn't like that basement.

232
00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:12,000
Suddenly I can't breathe.

233
00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:21,000
I was in a spiraling tube going down and just couldn't take that breath.

234
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:25,000
I mean, you have to breathe to live.

235
00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:32,000
And you're the only one really that knows that you're struggling.

236
00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:36,000
But then I hear something else.

237
00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:45,000
Something that's repetitive over and over again.

238
00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:50,000
So I'm trying to figure out what this is.

239
00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:55,000
No, I'm sorry.

240
00:20:55,000 --> 00:21:05,000
There's absolutely nothing that should be making that noise.

241
00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:08,000
Why did my CPAP shut off?

242
00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:09,000
What happened?

243
00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:11,000
What's happening?

244
00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:16,000
She just all worked up in a frenzy.

245
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:20,000
I said, what do you mean it quit working?

246
00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:24,000
So I hit the button again and it turned on.

247
00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:27,000
Full blast.

248
00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:30,000
Something must have switched it off.

249
00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:32,000
It's plugged in the wall.

250
00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:35,000
It's getting plenty of electricity.

251
00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:36,000
No power outages.

252
00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:39,000
It makes no sense.

253
00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:41,000
I don't know if I have to turn it off.

254
00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:43,000
It's a machine.

255
00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:45,000
Maybe it's malfunctioning.

256
00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:47,000
You're okay now.

257
00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:51,000
Just trying to get some sleep, okay?

258
00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:54,000
I felt like he thought I was lying.

259
00:21:54,000 --> 00:22:03,000
That it was all in my head.

260
00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:06,000
I'm groggy.

261
00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:13,000
I went to get myself a glass of water.

262
00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:18,000
I thought I heard almost like a chanting.

263
00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:24,000
We couldn't make it out to know for sure.

264
00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:31,000
There's something standing in my dining room.

265
00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:46,000
What's going on?

266
00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:48,000
There's someone in the dining room.

267
00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:49,000
What?

268
00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:55,000
There's someone in the dining room.

269
00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:58,000
Stay here.

270
00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:20,000
There was nothing there.

271
00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:23,000
Absolutely nothing there.

272
00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:25,000
There's nobody there.

273
00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:27,000
Nobody.

274
00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:32,000
I thought everything was hokum.

275
00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:34,000
There is something in this house.

276
00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:37,000
I thought it was a house.

277
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:39,000
I thought it was a house.

278
00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:43,000
There was nothing in this house.

279
00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:45,000
Come on, Christy.

280
00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:48,000
You're starting to sound hysterical.

281
00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:49,000
You're sick.

282
00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:50,000
Just calm down.

283
00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:59,000
Okay?

284
00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:02,000
I was frustrated now because, yes, I saw it.

285
00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:03,000
No, I'm not lying.

286
00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:07,000
Yes, it's real.

287
00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:10,400
I'm not crazy. My daughter's not crazy.

288
00:24:10,400 --> 00:24:13,000
There's something going on.

289
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:15,640
Amber?

290
00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:18,400
Amber? Honey?

291
00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:20,000
I'm sorry.

292
00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:22,440
It kind of lifted a weight off my shoulders

293
00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:25,800
because now I finally had someone on my side who's like,

294
00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:27,800
hey, I believe you.

295
00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:32,800
I was angry.

296
00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:39,000
I'm sorry.

297
00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:48,000
We need to move.

298
00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:52,000
We would be financially ruined

299
00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:55,000
if we were to walk away from the house.

300
00:24:55,000 --> 00:24:58,000
I don't think I can call a company and say,

301
00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:00,000
I'm not living in my house any longer

302
00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:02,000
because I believe it to be haunted.

303
00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:05,000
They're gonna say, please send the payment.

304
00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:12,000
Nelson said, maybe you need to go see your mom and dad.

305
00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:16,000
Take Amber.

306
00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:18,000
Matt's got football camp.

307
00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:20,000
I'll stay here with him.

308
00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:24,000
You two go and just have a good time.

309
00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:25,000
Daddy loves you.

310
00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:27,000
So Amber and I went.

311
00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:39,000
It was a nice clean day.

312
00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:41,000
So I went out into the back porch.

313
00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:44,000
I set up the target at the tree

314
00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:47,000
and I just started launching arrows down the range.

315
00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:55,000
One of the shots, it goes over the target way off.

316
00:25:58,000 --> 00:26:00,000
The arrow's on the middle of the snow where.

317
00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:02,000
I thought I had to go get the arrows too

318
00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:04,000
because the arrows are expensive.

319
00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:07,000
I kept walking down.

320
00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:09,000
You could hear anything walking that faria.

321
00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:12,000
In fact, I'm pretty sure I scared off a squirrel and a turkey

322
00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:14,000
when I was walking down there.

323
00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:31,000
And then I heard something else.

324
00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:34,000
It's your crunch, crunch, crunch, real soft.

325
00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:41,000
I could feel my heart racing.

326
00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:44,000
The hair on the back of my neck stood up.

327
00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:48,000
I picked up the arrow.

328
00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:53,000
And then you just hear again, just crunch, crunch, crunch.

329
00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:55,000
And this time it's a little louder and closer.

330
00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:03,000
I knew something was hunting me.

331
00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:07,000
So I started booking it.

332
00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:20,000
I just looked behind me. Nothing was there.

333
00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:22,000
There it goes again, just the crunch, crunch, crunch.

334
00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:33,000
I tried to open the door and the door was locked.

335
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:37,000
Are you freaking kidding me?

336
00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:39,000
Dad? Dad!

337
00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:41,000
Maybe my dad's in there and he just closed the door

338
00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:43,000
and locked it because he thought no one was out there.

339
00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:49,000
I actually knocked the arrow into my bow.

340
00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:53,000
I'm going to walk slowly and I'm going to walk backward.

341
00:27:56,000 --> 00:27:59,000
It's territorial. If means that's it, it's a predator.

342
00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:03,000
It could be a cougar, or it could be a wolf,

343
00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:07,000
or it could be a human.

344
00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:12,000
So I had my bow in one hand with the arrow still inside the chamber, ready to go.

345
00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:16,000
I'm just frantically pressing the key the first time, got it wrong.

346
00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:23,000
Third time, got it right.

347
00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:33,000
I hit the garage door closer on the inside.

348
00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:38,000
As the garage door is closing, I'm telling myself if anything walks through the bottom of that door,

349
00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:40,000
it's getting hit in the head with the arrow.

350
00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:56,000
I don't want to say anything at that point.

351
00:28:56,000 --> 00:28:59,000
I don't want to say, oh yeah, we might have a mountain lion in the backyard.

352
00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:02,000
I can imagine that going over well with the family.

353
00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:12,000
Lights are out.

354
00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:21,000
Something tells me to look out toward the hallway.

355
00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:24,000
I see a dark mass.

356
00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:30,000
Matt, it's late. You should be in bed. What are you doing?

357
00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:33,000
No reply.

358
00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:36,000
Matt, seriously dude.

359
00:29:37,000 --> 00:29:40,000
And it kind of walked or sleaked past.

360
00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:44,000
That's when I reached into my nightstand.

361
00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:51,000
And I said, you got about two seconds to answer me or I'm going to put two bullets down that hallway.

362
00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:58,000
I got up out of the bed, still had the pistol in my hand.

363
00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:07,000
There is nothing.

364
00:30:09,000 --> 00:30:11,000
Something was going on.

365
00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:14,000
I can't explain it.

366
00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:25,000
So, we're getting close to my favorite time of year and also Matt's.

367
00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:28,000
It's deer season.

368
00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:38,000
I went down to the basement.

369
00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:41,000
And I was looking for all the hunting gear.

370
00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:54,000
The creepy feeling you get down there, it's hard to describe.

371
00:30:56,000 --> 00:30:59,000
It's cold. Desolate kind of almost.

372
00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:02,000
You feel alone down there.

373
00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:15,000
I got the same feeling when I was being followed in the forest.

374
00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:28,000
Dad?

375
00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:37,000
When I turned around, someone was standing there.

376
00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:42,000
It was staring at me.

377
00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:47,000
It was blocking my only exit out.

378
00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:51,000
I dropped my shoulder.

379
00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:54,000
And I started spinning straight toward the thing.

380
00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:04,000
When I got up to the door and it was locked, I went into panic mode.

381
00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:09,000
What's going on?

382
00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:11,000
At that point, I wanted to leave.

383
00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:12,000
I just saw what Amber saw.

384
00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:16,000
I can no longer deny her there is truth in what she's saying.

385
00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:22,000
There is something that I have to open my mind up to.

386
00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:28,000
And it's sending me a very clear message.

387
00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:31,000
It does not want us there.

388
00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:42,000
When Christy came back from her and Amber's old trip to Chicago,

389
00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:45,000
the first person I seen was Amber.

390
00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:51,000
I haven't seen Amber happy like that in a while.

391
00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:56,000
And then I seen Christy.

392
00:32:56,000 --> 00:32:57,000
Where's the stick?

393
00:32:57,000 --> 00:32:58,000
I don't need it.

394
00:32:58,000 --> 00:33:00,000
Oh, I've got my baby back.

395
00:33:01,000 --> 00:33:04,000
She kind of looked like my Christy.

396
00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:07,000
I need to talk to you inside.

397
00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:20,000
When we arrived back home, I felt re-energized.

398
00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:24,000
My husband told me that I looked so much better.

399
00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:28,000
That all changed when we walked back in the house, though.

400
00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:34,000
It was like everything that I worked so hard to re-establish, regenerate,

401
00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:36,000
just got sucked right out of me.

402
00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:37,000
Honey, you okay?

403
00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:38,000
Here, have a seat.

404
00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:44,000
I told Christy about all the crazy things that I had to do.

405
00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:48,000
I told Christy about all the crazy things that I had to do.

406
00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:52,000
I told Christy about all the crazy things that I had to do.

407
00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:56,000
I told Christy about all the crazy things that happened while she was in Chicago.

408
00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:57,000
I'm sorry.

409
00:33:58,000 --> 00:33:59,000
You were right.

410
00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:02,000
Something doesn't want us here.

411
00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:07,000
Now I know it's targeted our whole family.

412
00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:09,000
We have to do something.

413
00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:12,000
I was consumed with anger.

414
00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:14,000
Let's find out how to fight this thing.

415
00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:19,000
Its main objective, obviously, was to tear my family apart,

416
00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:23,000
but in actual reality, it brought us closer.

417
00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:31,000
I jumped on my computer and did hours and hours of research

418
00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:39,000
on paranormal activity, blessings of the home, ghost encounters.

419
00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:47,000
My house had every diagnosis of paranormal terrorism.

420
00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:53,000
I was remembering Amber was telling me that when she saw that little boy,

421
00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:57,000
that he looked Native American.

422
00:34:58,000 --> 00:35:01,000
It was almost like a life-throwning on.

423
00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:07,000
This thing is trying to kill me and take out my family.

424
00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:23,000
I used to drive into town and there was a Native American store.

425
00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:28,000
I needed to go there and find out what to do.

426
00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:40,000
As I opened the door, you can hear Native American music.

427
00:35:43,000 --> 00:35:44,000
Hi.

428
00:35:45,000 --> 00:35:46,000
Hi.

429
00:35:47,000 --> 00:35:53,000
There's just walls of dream catchers and there's an incense smell in the air

430
00:35:53,000 --> 00:35:57,000
and stones in cabinets and arrowheads.

431
00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:01,000
Hi.

432
00:36:01,000 --> 00:36:02,000
How are you?

433
00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:04,000
Okay, thank you.

434
00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:10,000
This really nice lady was right behind the counter and she said hello to me.

435
00:36:11,000 --> 00:36:12,000
Can I help you with anything?

436
00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:16,000
I think she sensed that I needed help.

437
00:36:17,000 --> 00:36:22,000
I don't think I'm crazy, but I think my house is haunted.

438
00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:25,000
Oh, I live in the Lowes Hills.

439
00:36:26,000 --> 00:36:32,000
She told me that she wasn't surprised that there is a lot of activity out that way.

440
00:36:32,000 --> 00:36:35,000
That area is very important to many tribes.

441
00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:38,000
It was a meeting place, a sacred place.

442
00:36:38,000 --> 00:36:42,000
Many people were buried there to begin their journey onto the star path.

443
00:36:43,000 --> 00:36:46,000
It was sacred ground that should have never been developed.

444
00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:51,000
When the tribes were moved off the land, they were promised that nobody would ever build there.

445
00:36:51,000 --> 00:36:56,000
We've disturbed something that we should have never disturbed.

446
00:36:56,000 --> 00:36:58,000
Is there anything I can do?

447
00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:01,000
There might be something that could help.

448
00:37:01,000 --> 00:37:17,000
She gave me four stones that were amber and told me to put them in the four corners of my property.

449
00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:26,000
I need to light the sage and I need to bless every corner, opening, doorway,

450
00:37:26,000 --> 00:37:34,000
and tell these spirits to move on that this is my home and they are not welcome.

451
00:37:46,000 --> 00:37:51,000
I felt empowered to claim what is mine.

452
00:37:51,000 --> 00:37:56,000
I'm not scared of you any longer.

453
00:37:56,000 --> 00:38:00,000
My family is no longer going to fear you.

454
00:38:05,000 --> 00:38:16,000
I wanted to help send a confused family of Indians on their way to a better life.

455
00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:26,000
Something happened, something got accomplished.

456
00:38:29,000 --> 00:38:34,000
It almost felt like it was lighter in there.

457
00:38:36,000 --> 00:38:39,000
Chrissy told me what she did.

458
00:38:41,000 --> 00:38:46,000
I was hoping, hoping that it would work.

459
00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:53,000
Maybe there's a glimmer of hope that we can go back to normal.

460
00:38:56,000 --> 00:39:01,000
Everything was good. It was quiet.

461
00:39:09,000 --> 00:39:14,000
Now we could start putting good memories in the house instead of all the negative.

462
00:39:17,000 --> 00:39:23,000
Christmas is my favorite time of year. My kids' favorite time of year.

463
00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:30,000
So we decorated the tree and it was fun.

464
00:39:33,000 --> 00:39:40,000
It was just a lot of laughter, a lot of bantering between all of us.

465
00:39:47,000 --> 00:39:51,000
It was beautiful.

466
00:39:51,000 --> 00:39:56,000
I was so happy.

467
00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:20,000
Suddenly I panicked. I grabbed my mask.

468
00:40:20,000 --> 00:40:25,000
The air was flowing and the machine is working just fine.

469
00:40:26,000 --> 00:40:30,000
I had to take a good deep breath.

470
00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:35,000
It was scary. I needed just to relax.

471
00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:40,000
You just didn't know what to expect.

472
00:40:56,000 --> 00:40:59,000
So Christmas time came around.

473
00:40:59,000 --> 00:41:04,000
I stopped dead in my tracks.

474
00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:07,000
Mom? Mom!

475
00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:27,000
Mom? Mom!

476
00:41:27,000 --> 00:41:32,000
I'm looking at a blank tree.

477
00:41:32,000 --> 00:41:36,000
Everything was off the tree. Like nothing was put up.

478
00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:37,000
What's the matter?

479
00:41:37,000 --> 00:41:44,000
I'm just staring at it in disbelief because I really don't want to believe that it's happening again.

480
00:41:48,000 --> 00:41:49,000
All I could say was,

481
00:41:49,000 --> 00:41:52,000
They're back.

482
00:41:58,000 --> 00:42:03,000
We're done. Good luck.

483
00:42:13,000 --> 00:42:18,000
They did not want us there. They didn't want anybody else there.

484
00:42:20,000 --> 00:42:22,000
It's sacred to them.

485
00:42:23,000 --> 00:42:28,000
I prayed they would not follow us.

486
00:42:32,000 --> 00:42:35,000
It's yours. You can have it.

487
00:42:41,000 --> 00:42:45,000
They can have that house. They can have everything.

488
00:42:45,000 --> 00:42:53,000
If I live to be a hunter, I'll never go back there. Ever.
